Chapter 835 The Price of Willfulness
Early the next morning, after eating porridge and pickles, everyone picked up buckets and shovels and went to the hinterland of the desert to plant trees.

Just like a magic trick, as they went deeper into the desert, the temperature became higher and higher, and everyone was already sweating before they reached the place.

Bai Lina couldn't stand this kind of suffering, and she started to complain, "Wang Dongdong, what kind of place are you talking about? Where is the thousand-year-old Populus euphratica tree you mentioned? Where is the dry river? I didn't see anything, here Nothing but sand is sand."

At first, Wang Dongdong coaxed Bai Lina patiently, but later he also lost his patience, "The big guys are all here to plant trees. It was you who made the noise to come over to watch the fun, so we brought you with us. Now you want to stay Just stay there, if you don’t want to stay, get out.”

Bai Lina burst into tears immediately, she was spoiled at home, she thought that Wang Dongdong would coax her when she came out to play, but she didn't expect his attitude to be so rude.

Bai Lina cried and walked back, "I'm going back, I won't follow you here to eat sand."

Eat sand, this adjective is indeed very appropriate, because the wind and sand are too strong, so there are many sand grains in yesterday's soup and cakes.

Bai Lina left, and the few volunteers present had no intention of chasing her. They disagreed and did not conspire with each other. Everyone came here for a common goal, and no one would try to coax Bai Lina.

Soon everyone arrived at the tree planting base, where the grove had grown into a large area, a long forest belt.

The trees planted here are all particularly drought-resistant safflower, poplar, and seabuckthorn.

Not to mention, everyone felt much cooler as soon as they approached the woods.

Brother Hu led everyone to the well and started fetching water to water the trees.

The motor-driven wells here have to be drilled very deep to get out the groundwater.

There is only one mobile well in such a large forest generation, and trees that are far away need to be watered manually with buckets.

Ah San and Geng Mingyuan both paid attention to exercise, and they were in good health, so they felt very relaxed doing this job.

"Mingyuan, I can't believe that your family is so rich, you are still willing to do this kind of hard work, what do you think?" Ah San asked curiously after changing the pole.

"Environmental pollution has been too serious in the past two years. If we don't plant trees and grass, I'm afraid our future generations will have no room to live," Geng Mingyuan sighed, showing a mature look.

Ah San nodded, "What you said makes sense. Money is not enough. It's not wrong to think about it in the long run!"

Everyone worked hard, and the day passed quickly.

It wasn't until they dragged their exhausted bodies back to the camp that they realized something had happened to Bai Lina.

"She insisted on asking me to take her to the station. I said that there is time for our car to go to the town. It is impossible to waste gasoline for her alone, so she left by herself," the team members who stayed behind also felt very happy. It's a pity that they have limited fuel and must save it. If it wasn't for a large purchase, they wouldn't drive to the town.

"Then has she arrived at the station?" Brother Hu hurriedly asked.

The guards shook their heads.

Brother Hu sighed, "Big guy, get some water and dry food, and set out to find her!"

Wang Dongdong was furious, he didn't expect that this Bai Lina didn't accomplish anything well enough, and she failed in everything she did. Coming here didn't help, but instead caused everyone a drag.

In the desert area, wandering alone will definitely be dangerous. Regardless of fatigue, everyone resigned to their fate, filled up water, and went separately to look for Bai Lina.

Geng Mingyuan was in a group with Ah San, and the two of them walked northeastward.

The people in the kitchen were not in the mood to cook today. The big guys took a few cold steamed buns. Ah San broke open the cold steamed buns, put luncheon meat in them, and stuffed one for Geng Mingyuan, munching on himself, "Hurry up." Eat some, if you are too hungry, you will not be able to eat any more, and you will easily faint!"

The two ate while walking, and after eating a few steamed buns, they really felt less weak. They called Bai Lina's name loudly while walking, and they didn't see Bai Lina until one or two o'clock in the morning.

Ah San refused to let Geng Mingyuan go any further, "I can't go any further, the two of us are sleeping here!"

"What about that girl?" Geng Mingyuan was still concerned about the disobedient Bai Lina.

Ah San said lightly, "There is always a price to be paid for self-willedness!"

Geng Mingyuan was taken aback for a moment. He understood that Ah San wanted him to give up looking for Bai Lina. Although it was cruel from an emotional point of view, he had to admit that what Ah San said was right. If two people searched blindly in the dark, it would be easy In case of danger, Bai Lina can't be saved like that!
Ah San took out the canvas that she carried with her and spread it on the ground, took out wormwood realgar and smoked it around, "When staying in the desert, the most important thing to watch out for is the snake!"

Hearing this, Geng Mingyuan shrank his neck involuntarily.

The two lay back to back on the canvas. It was late at night, the wind in the desert blew up, and the temperature dropped sharply. Geng Mingyuan was frozen stiff. Yesterday he felt that the iron house was uncomfortable, but it is not the same as today. In comparison, a tin house has become a paradise.

Geng Mingyuan was so tired from walking that he fell asleep even though he felt uncomfortable all over his body. He took two naps and was quickly woken up by the cold. He stayed in a daze until dawn.

After dawn, Ah San looked at the water and food left by the two of them, and then continued to search forward. The two of them walked for fifty or sixty kilometers, but they couldn't find Bai Lina.

Only then did they return along the original route. After they rushed back to the camp, the first thing they did was to inquire about the safety of Bai Lina and the other team members.

Brother Hu seems to be ten years older all of a sudden, he looks darker and thinner, "I met a wolf in the valley, Dongzi and the others brought back her remaining body, and they are waiting for his family to pick it up. What about her!"

Geng Mingyuan was taken aback. He didn't expect that the quarrel between Wang Dongdong and Bai Lina would have such serious consequences.

"Then what should we do next? Are others okay?" Geng Mingyuan was a little helpless.

"What should we do? Let's continue planting trees. This Bai Lina is an adult, and she should be responsible for her actions!" Brother Hu seemed familiar with it, since they volunteers came to this desolate place He has seen all kinds of strange things about planting trees, and Bai Lina is just one of them.

Although Geng Mingyuan felt uncomfortable, he still went to comfort Wang Dongdong. He was going to take a rest and continue planting trees. After all, he came here for this.

But no one expected that soon after Bai Lina's parents arrived, there would be an uproar in this place.
